Post From: limit orders on SST not place it at desired level at certain conditions

Given the test that you already did previously in which you verified that the Limit order is being placed at the appropriate level when you enter a certain value in the J22. We have to believe that what you are seeing is simply a change in the price of the cell after the order has been placed.

That is, the price is correct in cell J22 when the order is put in, but then when you look at it in the spreadsheet it has already changed to some other value, which makes you think it was not put in correctly. But in reality, it was put in at the price that was specified at that time.

One thing you can do to verify is to run a replay and pause it just before a point where you know the order will be entered. Then step forward in 1 trade increments to where the order is put in and see what the values are. The price at which the Limit order is being entered will match what is in cell J22 at that moment.
